Health Spending vs. Life Expectancy

  • The U.S spends more on health care than

any other country while achieving some

  • f the worst population health outcomes.
  • A common hypothesis: high U.S. health

care spending results from low spending

  • n social programs, based on evidence

that low social spending leads to a sicker population and higher health care costs.

Health Spending vs. Social Spending

  • U.S. social spending (19.7% of GDP) is

slightly above the average for high- income countries (17.7% of GDP)

  • Countries that spend more on health also

tend to spend more on social spending (health spending does not appear to crowd out social spending).

  • Countries with the greatest increases in

health spending over time also had larger increases in social spending.

How we spend is as important as how much

  • What determines health outcomes?
  • How do social conditions impact health?
  • Are social needs the same as social determinants?
  • What social spending has the biggest impact on health?
  • How can we get the most from the money we spend?

  • The social determinants of health are the conditions in which

people are born, grow, live, work and age.

  • These circumstances are shaped by the distribution of money,

power and resources at global, national and local levels.

  • The social determinants of health are mostly responsible for

health inequities – the unfair and avoidable differences in health status seen within and between countries.

  • Social determinants of health may impact any

downstream health outcome – heart disease, cancer, injury, stroke, diabetes, pneumonia, kidney disease …

  • They drive the three lethal epidemics that reduced U.S.

life expectancy three years in a row (2015-2017) – suicide, drug overdose, and alcoholism

  • Social determinants are mostly responsible for unfair

differences in health status across populations – for example, disparities in infant mortality

How we spend is as important as how much

  • Set clear priorities for existing resources, surge resources to the

greatest need, and tie financial incentives to social priorities

  • Focus on cross-cutting outcomes and strategies – early childhood

supports, school-based health, affordable housing, employment and income, comprehensive primary care

  • Incorporate “health in all policies” – public health, medicine,

development, education, environment, energy, human services, natural resources, recreation, public safety, corrections, taxation
